Christine Bleakley's red hot date with Frank Lampard... but The One problem is their terrible fake tans

Future's bright: Christine Bleakley glows in the dark as she leaves posh London restaurant Scalini last night


They recently returned from a summer break in Italy, looking golden brown and refreshed.

But judging by their appearance last night, it would seem Christine Bleakley and boyfriend Frank Lampard have been topping up their tans from the bottle - in earnest.

The couple looked distinctly orange on a night out in London as they were spotted leaving Italian restaurant Scalini, not far from 32-year-old Frank's Chelsea Football Club.

Former One Show host Christine, 31, and England star Frank returned from their Sardinia break a couple of weeks ago.

But if the Irish-born presenter, who stepped out in a short red dress last night, was hoping to hold on to her summer glow, it would be fair to say she went a shade too far.

Christine's mahogany look wasn't helped by the fact she appears to have overdone the under eye concealer too, giving her an 'inverse panda' effect.

Television viewers across the nation can only hope that the searing shade of her skin pales before she hits her screens again with Adrian Chiles on the re-launched GMTV show Daybreak on September 6, or we'll all be reaching for our sunglasses.

As the Daily Mail revealed earlier this week, the former One Show Christine is also set to take over the reins of The X Factor next year as part of her new £4million deal with ITV.

The 31-year-old presenter is being lined up by Simon Cowell and producers on the television talent show to replace host Dermot O'Leary.

A senior television source told the Mail at the time: 'Dermot has made it clear that he would like to move to America full time.

'His girlfriend Dee Kopang is already working as a TV producer in Los Angeles, so he would like to try his luck in Hollywood. He is already spending the majority of his time out there with Dee, so it would make sense.'

Christine, meanwhile, appears to be clearly in the driving seat, not just in her own career, but in her relationship.

Despite wearing an eye-wateringly skin-tight red dress and nude-coloured Louboutin skyscraper heels, the presenter still managed to get behind the wheel of their sleek black limo and drive off into the night.

Let's hope £120,000 a week Frank, whose tight shirt last night looked dangerously close to popping open, wasn't drinking though. Chelsea's first match of the Premier League's new season is only a few days away.

They play Manchester United at home on August 8.

This morning however, Christine had changed from her figure-hugging frock into a tracksuit and flipflops as she drove away from her lover's swanky Chelsea pad.

She was on her way to the exclusive £190-a-month Chelsea Club gym at Stamford Bridge, where she now regularly works out. Perhaps she was hoping to work off all that pasta from last night...
